Atsign Technology for IoT
Iot Secured and Simplified
The future of IoT has been valued at over $12 trillion by 2030. With billions of devices already in use, and with billions more to come, how can we secure all of the data and all of the things in a simple way, right now?

The open-source atPlatform actually makes it super simple. All applications built on the atPlatform are end-to-end encrypted (E2EE), peer-to-peer, and completely privacy compliant, with no extra work on the developer’s part.
This is possible because the atPlatform is built on a revolutionary new open protocol called–you guessed it–the atPlatform Protocol. One of the most-loved applications of this E2EE protocol is the ability to simplify administration and securely manage connected devices. With Atsign IoT, you can take advantage of having no open network ports, no VPNs, no passwords, and no static IP addresses or firewall port configuration, and a significantly reduced attack surface.
For communication, your IoT devices use Atsigns, unique identifiers that use end-to-end encryption to send and authenticate data on applications built on the atPlatform.
IoT with Atsign is secure and simple. Want proof? Check out this awesome tool called SSH No Ports, developed by our co-founder and CTO, Colin. NoPorts allows system administrators to remotely connect to an IoT device without needing to open any ports.
The McKinsey AI Breach: How a Zero-Port Architecture Stops Autonomous Agents in Their Tracks
The McKinsey AI breach proved that legacy perimeter security is broken against autonomous AI agents. See the 4 steps of the machine-speed hack and why Atsign’s Zero-Port Architecture would have stopped the attack instantly.

AI Architect solves the enterprise AI bottleneck by combining visual architectural blueprints with a Zero Exposure foundation, allowing leaders to deploy secure, production-ready AI agents at 100x the speed of traditional coding.
The SDLC is Broken: Building Architectural Trust for Agentic AI
The SDLC is broken. As AI moves from chatbots to autonomous agents, here is how the architecture of trust must change.
The MCP Security Paradox: Why the “USB-C for AI” Is an Architectural Minefield
Model Context Protocol promises universal connectivity for AI, but its current architecture is scaling a broken trust model that leaves sensitive enterprise data vulnerable to exploitation.
How to Let AI Agents Act on Your Behalf Without Losing Control
Imagine your AI agent rebooking a canceled flight and hotel while you sleep—securely. Learn how the atPlatform solves the trust and permission problems of AI, allowing agents to act for you while you maintain total control.
